Popis: A comparison of techniques used to expose latent damage resulting from process-induced charging events is presented. In particular, the result of hot- electron stress is compared to Fowler-Nordheim stress for three different charging signatures. Although both techniques can illuminate some charging events, hot-carrier stressing is shown to be superior because it is sensitive to all three types of charging events, and can quantify the effect of these process-induced events.
